The low sunlight was really great this evening. And in combination with the phantastic panorma and the tender green colour of the sprouting nature I had the feeling to have a view on Tolkien's Middle-earth.

But it is "merely and simply" the Upper Rhine Valley around Dornbirn, south-east of Lake Constance and not Gondor or Rohan... ;-)

The Dornbirn cable car takes you within a few minutes to the top station in 976 meters above sea level .

From the panorama restaurant you can enjoy both great Austrian cuisine and the view on the Upper Rhine Valley (approx. 440 meters above sea level).

After sunset you may have an outlook on the lights of Dornbirn, Bregenz and the bordering Switzerland.
